Default WTF ?? am i missing something here ?

Been watching this on the bay for a couple of days

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

surely there cant be anything on it worth that kind of money ? engine and box have to have been cooked
there is no seperate chassis on it as its a mono so the floorpan must be fucked
it was left hand drive
and who the fuck has a 30grand vehicle which catches fire and doesnt claim on the insurance ?

to be honest looks like you would need a lot of new parts for a re shell as well, whole new interoir etc.. plus i imagin the gear box and engine are fucked..

either chopped up and parts sold on elsewhere, or it'll be ringed off for another car.... best bet is the ringer for sure or a pikey site.... thats a certainty
